If you are on Shipa Cloud today, you will have noticed a new module called Insights. We are pleased to announce the initial release of Shipa Insights and certainly have a lot in store as we continue to build out the module. As more items continue to shift left towards the developer and the rise of the full lifecycle developer continues to occur, outside of technical non-functional requirements such as connectivity, reporting and metrics are also important.
With KubeCon underway, many of us in the cloud native community are looking forward to learning about the newest innovations from the companies we follow. At SUSE, we’ve been working hard to deliver some new enhancements to Rancher with our 2.6.5 version. I want to briefly take you through the highlights of this release and why we’re excited about these new additions.
Like your virtual machine running another virtual machine , today thanks to Loft Labs, you are now able to run multiple virtual Kubernetes clusters in a Kubernetes cluster. The vcluster project is focused on creating fully functional virtual Kubernetes clusters inside a base cluster allowing for a different approach to multitenancy than spinning up a separate Kubernetes cluster. A core use case of Shipa is the ability to have abstractions that make deploying to multiple clusters easy for developers.
A Kubernetes environment includes a wide range of resources—such as clusters, nodes, and pods—that work together to run dynamic applications at scale. In order to monitor a Kubernetes application effectively, you need a multi-dimensional view into your clusters’ health that encompasses the complex dependency relationships among these resources.
